Has EirGrid looked at the possibility of a 220 kV underground cable for the entire length or in phases of underground and overground? One would not have the difficulties that occur with different kV, and I appreciate those difficulties. I believe the possibility of a 220 kV should be looked at in parallel with the overhead that is there now. The two could be run in parallel.
